We’ve had twice baked potatoes a number of times at friend’s houses and loved them! So, over the holidays my husband decided to create his own … and they’ve quickly become a family favorite! Sour cream, chives, cheese and some bacon turns these regular potatoes into a loaded potato masterpiece!
Loaded Twice Baked Potatoes
Ingredients
- 6 large baking potatoes
- Two sticks of unsalted butter
- 12oz grated cheese (we typically use cheddar)
- 8oz sour cream
- 1/8 cup chopped chives (or green onions)
- Bacon bits
- Salt and pepper
- Garlic powder
Instructions
- Sprinkle salt and garlic on potato
- Place two pats of butter on aluminum foil and wrap baked potatoes in foil
- Bake at 425degrees for 1 1/2 hours or until done (depending on size of potato)
- Unwrap potatoes from foil, cut lengthwise and let them cool
- Scoop potatoes into bowl, leaving 1/4 inch shell of potato
- Add butter, sour cream and 8oz of cheese, chives, garlic powder and bacon into potatoes
- Mix thoroughly and salt/pepper to taste
- Scoop mixture back into potato shells
- Bake at 350degrees for 25minutes or until heated through
- Add remaining cheese and bacon to top of potatoes
- Place back in over for an additional five minutes to melt the cheese
- Serve and enjoy!
